Hi,
I just noticed this and found it surprising:
In [8]: from numpy import ma
In [9]: a = ma.array([1,2,3,4],mask=[False,False,True,False],fill_value=0)
In [10]: a
Out[10]:
masked_array(data = [1 2 -- 4],
mask = [False False True False],
fill_value=0)
In [11]: a[2]
Out[11]:
masked_array(data = --,
mask = True,
fill_value=1e+20)
In [12]: np.__version__
Out[12]: '1.1.0'
Is there a reason that the fill_value isn't inherited from the parent array?
